Benefits of Conducting an Employee Engagement Survey

We’ve been conducting employee research for over 20 years and in our experience of conducting an employee engagement survey, the main benefits of employee research include:

• Demonstrating to employees that you are taking a genuine interest in them, their views and ideas;
• Identifying strengths and weaknesses in management performance and organisational policies, procedures and technology which will improve operational efficiency and employee satisfaction while reducing costs;
• Improving employee retention, which will in turn cut the costs of recruiting and retraining replacement staff and make your company a more attractive employment proposition;
• Facilitate ongoing communication;
• Gauge employees’ opinions of employers’ benefits programs;
• Learn about working conditions from an employees point of view;
• Can provide insight into where employee morale stands beyond what you see on the surface;
• Improving work/home balance and reducing absenteeism;
• Determining key contributors and barriers to delivering excellent customer service and getting employee suggestions for improvements;
• Highlighting any issues that arise from changes in current programmes and consulting on various plans, such as relocation, so that they can be managed and the benefits realised at the earliest opportunity;
• Helping HR directors put key employee issues and concerns to the forefront of the organisation’s management agenda;
• Conducting employee engagement surveys will allow you to benchmark the data for comparison purposes.
